Satisfaction as a definition is the highest state of well-being and harmony that a person can achieve, it is the action that responds to a complaint or contrary reason. To be able to feel comfortable with ourselves and to meet our needs.

With this definition as a premise and remembering those things you do that give you satisfaction, I invite you to read this second post to the end where I tell you about photography as one of my greatest satisfactions, one that I can recognize as such and that I interested in sharing you.


This is where I tell you how my first approach to photography was. My father is a fan of images and videos. I remember that he always carried his cameras to capture everything that happened and make those moments of our family life last, something that I treasure and follow as an example. At the same time, since I was little, my interest in everything artistic grew, mainly the visual, such as drawing and painting. I believe that it is this approach to the visual arts that made me appreciate photography as I do today.


My development in this profession took place in courses and workshops that I carried out because of my interest in getting to know this art closely, from my pre-adolescence until today I continue to learn about this subject that I am passionate about. As an excuse to be able to do my school work, at first I asked my parents to buy me a camera and I began to take photographs, mainly for university projects, later in family meetings they asked me for the portrait of the nephews, the siblings; and since then I was requested for social events of friends and family. With a little uncertainty and insecurities, I dared and the results motivated me to continue; little by little I began to take it more seriously, and to practice it as a trading activity, giving me the opportunity to have a new camera.

What gives it that true meaning and importance in my life is that as I have been learning and discovering it, at the same time I have done it with myself.

This accompanied me in my stage of transition and discovery of identity and personality; discover the world, people, emotions, and their self-control. Likewise, it was because of her that I ventured into a new life far from home, studying a course in fashion photography and advertising in Barcelona. The experiences lived not only renewed my passion but also led me to discover more than my professional, my personal capacities. To grow up and put aside the "child who does not know what she is doing", to be that adult who takes responsibility for herself and learns to accept the consequences of her actions.


Here is the evidence that photography today has taken me by the hand from the first moment and has motivated me to continue growing in all aspects; It has guided me in making decisions and has led me to meet great people, incredible places, to learn new languages, among much more.

I am sure you can recognize this that I tell you with some activity that you do in your life, and if you still do not ... what are you waiting for? I invite you to discover yourself and recognize what it is that brings you satisfaction and motivation, I at least now that I have done it and I have clarified it, I feel that I flow down the path and the correct direction to achieve my goals, and it is something I wish to you too.

Thank you for getting here, and giving me your time when reading this post, I invite you to be on the lookout to learn a little more about my life story, as well as inspiration and training in photography. This is just the beginning.

PHOTOGRAPHE FOR PASSION BY PROFESSION

I don't know if it's important, but it's never too late to be who we want to be… We can seize opportunities or spoil everything…
I hope you see things that amaze you. I hope you feel things that you never felt before. I hope you meet people with a different point of view. I hope you live a life that you are proud of. And if you realize that this is not the case, I hope you have the courage to start from scratch. " - F. Scott Fitzgerald -
